School Website
KAYLIE INES AND KASEY WELLS
We evaluated our current school website. Looked at other school websites We decided
◦ Wasn’t enough color◦ Wanted video and music◦ More pictures◦ Less adult looking◦ It was boring
First as a class
We brainstormed ideas for new website◦ Something were not debatable ◦ Like contact info.◦ Administration◦ Mission and royal expectations ◦ Navigation (could choose were and what kind)
Drew different layouts Decided on which layout to use
As a small group
Decided titles we needed◦ Pleasant Valley Middle School◦ Administration
Photoshop Elements Paw prints were a Photoshop brush we
found online http://www.obsidiandawn.com/animal-tracks-photoshop-gimp-brushes
Starting to create
Created new file called newindex Reason we did this, until we were finish we
did not want to published to the web. We could still view as webpage just not link
for other to see. We wanted to view it in Internet explorer
because it looks different in Dreamweaver.
Using Dreamweaver 8
We created tables to help organize were to put different elements of the home page.
We went with three columns numerous rows to give us plenty of space.
Starting the Design
Insert image Save to web serverGive a alt tag for all image
Kasey used Slide.com to create a short video.
We wanted it to be fun Had to be short so website won’t take long
to load. http://www.slide.com/
Slide Show
Things we wanted to change◦ Paws for bullets◦ Color changed on navigation
Mrs. Hauff wants us to change title so the fonts are consistent but we like it how it is.
After inserting all the elements
Trying to figure out how to get the paw prints for bullets.
